For me an email is when I don’t need a quick response. A text is when I want a faster response but I don’t want to interrupt what the other person is doing. A call is when I want a quick response and I think it’s worth interrupting the person.

I very rarely call.

This image makes me uncomfortable.

I’m trying this.

I have a whiteboard in my kitchen. Amongst other things, on it I keep a list of perishable foods that we have on hand. When I am trying to figure out what I am going to cook, I can look at the list and not have to think about every ingredient I own, And only focus on things that will go off soon. I usually don’t include the common items we tend to go through often.

Sometimes I also include leftovers that need to be finished, and unusual ingredients I bought impulsively because I thought I wanted to try making something new but than lost focus/motivation to actually make something with them.

It’s not a great system, but it helps me waste less.

I respect the concern, but if you already ate the bacon that left you with the fat, hasn’t a fair amount of the damage already been done?

Yeah, I wish I knew this about a year ago. Thanks.

I’m often for giving people the benefit of the doubt, but the “keep your dumb mouth shut” part makes me feel like this is less of a shower thought and more of a “I didn’t know where to complain” thought.

I’m guessing you didn’t really think this one through. Perhaps try on Unpopular Opinions ?

Maybe it’ll be the next MySpace?

Also, doesn’t the jetbrains license let you continue to use the version that was the latest as of when your license ended. It’s a small difference, but also kinda huge.

It’s not about the taste, it’s about the texture.

Interesting, my first thought was similar but different.

Clothing.

Now I have to go poke around the Internet trying to understand the history of both, which came first, and speculate about which made a bigger impact on our species.

edit:

Yep, it was fire. By like a lot. Both have pretty big ranges, but fire seems to be in the hundreds of thousands of years ago range, and clothing seems to be in the dozens of thousands of years.

I use youtrack. It’s a project management tool. It’s not open source, but does have a self hostable option.

I guess you’ve never heard of the National Organization of Restoring Men.

I swear I am not making this up.

I think it needs to be 5 or 8 so it’s a number from the Fibonacci scale.

It is also important that there is no possible way that a story point can meaningfuly represent time.

I know you asked about memory, but the computer I just assembled had a 750watt power supply. As an American I think we should refer to it as a “one horsepower power supply” instead.

I feel like most of my googling of simple code is because I know what I’m trying to do, but I don’t remember the correct function name and or language structure for the language I’m currently using.

Clearly this is what we call “self documenting code”.

That feeling of hope as you listen to the radio during breakfast as they read out the names of which local schools are delayed and closed. Even more the excitement when your school changes from delayed to closed.

I usually say “I’m a computer toucher” or “computer programmer” if I don’t want to talk about what I do. If I want to flex some nerd cred, and/or boast a little, I’ll usually say “I work with machine automation” or “robotics”. It tends to get a more curious response and I can talk about some of the weird stuff I’ve helped make.
